Together with WIN=WIN we are also endeavouring to make cities aware of this working method, through a European parliamentary bill.
In all districts in Switzerland and in the majority of the big cities in Germany, for example, supplies for public works must bear this label. All non-registered traders offering material for sale in the big cities are excluded.

Can this label be misused?
Yes, but only briefly. The sublime container tracking system clearly indicates the factory/quarry from which materials come. Any infringement of the conditions for deliveries bearing the WIN=WIN labels carries the penalty of the loss of the label.
